DALE, DEVERNE, DON, & DICK, the 4-D'sWhen I met DeVerne, my husband-to-be over 56 years ago, I discovered that he was part of the 4-D's (4 guys who partied and run around together).Dale & Ryla married first, then I think Dick & June, and shortly thereafter Don & Viola. Lastly, DeVerne & Carol (myself) were married. We were all together often. DeVerne & Ryla were brother and sister, so that made Dale my brother-in-law. The 4-D's eventually left Centerville following their careers, but kept in contact over the years. Even though we lived miles apart our family tie kept us very close to Dale & Ryla. One by one the 4-D's have passed away, and Dale is the last one of them to die.Ryla, June, Vi, and Carol are all widows though it seems like only yesterday we were 4 young couples planning our future. Life goes by so quickly. Posted by Carol Stober - Talladega, AL - Sister-in-law to Dale March 30, 2012
